Catching:, Here and There, of lnterettlug Itenii,

Van No. 8 went through in two sections yesterday. During the month of November 27,408 pieces of baggage were handled at the union depot in Indianapolis.

Van No. 5 has been abandoned several times recently on account of being late It has run as' No. 7 when abandoned.

Mr. A. R. Campbell was confined to his house all lant week, seriously indiiposed. He was reported as much improved last evening.

Mr E. C. Shelton, paymaster of the Bee line, has received the appointment of cashier of the Lake Shore road. Mr. Shelton succeeds his father, who died suddenly a few days sinie.

II. W. Hibbard, general manager of the Vandalia, who returned from the East yesterday, says the principal topic of conversation in Eastern rfilroad circles is the radical reforms that the Corbin management is introducing on the Philadelphia & Reading. There is t-ome anxiety as to the outcome.

Indianapolis Journal: "Thirty-five years ago yesterday the Terre Haute & Indianapolis Railway company commenced running their trains into the city. For some days previous they had been running as far as the west side of the river, and then passengers were brought into the city over the National bridge in wagon?. Chauncey Rose was then president* of the company E.J. Peck general manager, superintendent, auditor, treasurer, and in fact filled any position where his services were needed. Said an old-time railroader yesterday, but for the imperious disposition of the late Chauncey Rose there would to-day be but one railroad between Indianapolis and St. Loui?. He went oti to say that at one time Mr. Rose held the controlling stock of the Terre Haute & Indianapolis road, and the Pennsylvania company went to him, stated that they had the control of the St. Louis, Alton A Terre Haute road and were anxious to purchase the control of the T. H. & I. At the first jump the Pennsylvania company offered 140 for ihe stock he held. He said "no". They then bid on until 181 was reached, when Mr Rose straightened up and said "he would not sell at any price." The Pennsylvania then said well, we will parallel your line. He answered, "DJ it my road wi 1 then earn 10 per cent, dividends," and in a short time the paralleling of the T. H. & I. was begun. Then Pennsylvania people being anxious to havtta line of their own, independent of the St. L., A. & T. II. road, built the Vandalia, but like men paid their part of the rental of the St. L., A. A T. H. road until the C„ C:, C. & I. was in shape to fisnime the full control of both the I A St L. division and the St. L., A. & T. II."

COLD WEATHER,

Annojlnjj I«"lay» Caused to Kallroarts by Cold Weather—'The Van's Ko3(lboi!.

An Express reporter met Mr. George E. Farrington, general agent of the Vandalia, the other day and during a casual conversation he spoke of some of the annoyances to which railroads are subjected during cold weather. Besides the usual delays owing to snow, it occasionally happens that some slight mishap which under ordinary circumstances would bo avoidt d, delays traffic. During the recent cold weather, the trucks under a loaded car broke down this side of East St. Louis and blocked the track for several hours. At Roekville some empties were being thrown into a sidinp, when the trucks under a loaded car went 08 the track at the frog and twisted around under the car. The accident was probably caused by a piece of ico or snow collecting st the frog. Owing to the cold, it was difficult to work, and a wrecker WBS sent for here. The trsck was blocked several hours.

Cold weather is also-jery hard on roadbeds. In fpeakiugof the Vandalia's roadbed, Mr. Farrington stated that it waj never ia better condition for the winter than at present. It his been put in the very best condition from one end of the line to the other.

Mr. Farrington stated that the volume of business, both freight and passenger, for

'86

will compare very favorably with

that of last year, and will be in excess of '85. At the present time there is a good volume of freight business moving, with good indications. Passenger business is a little light at the present time, but as good as could be expected for this time of the year.

The Contract For iti Publication I.st to an Kvansvllla Kirui. It was announced yesterday that the contract for the publication of the Firemen's magazine, the official organ of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, had been let to an Evansville firm. An Express reporter called upon Mr. Eugene Debs and asked him in regard to the truth of the rumor. He said that it was correct and that beginning with the January number, the magazine will begotten out" by Keller A Paine, 24 Sycamore street, Evansville. The contract is far one year. The contract is for 20 000 copies a month or more if required at $30 per thousand. There were bids from Terre Haute, Evansville, Indianapolis, Chicago, Gallion, Ohio, and several other cities.

HI* first Experience.

It was just about the time the E. & T. H. road was opened into Terre Haute, when good old Uncle Juniper Taylor, who lived on a fine, productive farm down in the Wabash bottoms some distance from town-—and who had never seen the "kivered keers," drove his team to the city one morning, hitching them at the old court house fence. He had some "l.iziness" to look after and this be promptly attended to. Having some leisure he wandered toward the primitive looking depot which the E. & T. H. people had erected at their city terminus. He had not been long waiting when a train •pas pulled up to the platform. Uncle Juniper gazed with wonder and awe upon the —to him—new creations of man's ingenuity. He admired the bright "yaller and red"' painting of the cars he stood agast and with head uncovered, in the presence of mighty iron horse at the head of the train, as it breathed forth into the atmosphere, with vicious hissing, jets of hot steam. When he saw people entering the car?, he followed timidly, lead by his excited curiosity. He took a seat, he found it soft and comfortable. He tried another and found it exactly similar. He sat and thought for a moment and his cogitations were only broken in upon when the conductor came through collecting fares. Handing the conductor 25 cents, Uncle Juniper ejaculated, "Sty, this, ere thing is a pooty nice kind of a Jim Crow arrangement. I guesi I'll take a quarter's worth." "All right," responded the conductor, and away sped the train, carrying Uncle Juniper on his firet trip over the rails. The speed increased, and the errs swayed. "Look here, Cap," exclaimed the old

& Paiae very reasonable.- The Maerazine has a circulation of nearly 20,000 copies monthly, and it is expected that this will be increased to 25,000 during the year. At the last session of th$ annual convention of the B. of F. it was decided that a copy of the Magazine should be sent to each member of the organization. This has materially added to the circulation of this popular monthly. The magazine has been issued in tbt3 city for several years at the office of Moore & mgen. This year it was decided to let the contract to the lowest bidder, and accordingly a call was issued and resulted as stated above.

Why Jay Gould Chose Mr. Clarke. Chicago Herald. "Everybody seems surprised that Jay Gould should be so prompt in selecting S. II. H. Clarke to succeed H. M. Hoxie after the latter's deitb," said a welK known railroad official yesterday. "If they knew the inside facts, which date back several years, they would not find so much IO marvel at in the speedy appointment. I was in St. Louis when Mr. Hoxie came in fryn Texas on Jav Gaffld's invitation to become vice president and-general manager of the Missouri .Pacific. Some of the circumstances attending the appointment wero revealed to me by a gentleman very near the throne, and one of these significant circumstances was that fur a long time before Mr. Hoxie was finally selected it was as light «, question as the flipping of a penny to see whether the place sboulJ go to the man- who afterward got it or Clarke. The condition of Clarke's health at that time was not the best, and to this day it is believed to have been the only thing which prevented his receiving the appointment at that time. With Hoxie removed by death, it is easy to un erstand why Gould lost no time in putting Clarke in the dead man's place. I kne* both Hoxie and Clarke then, aifc you may rely on it their reputations as railroad men were at the top notch. I fesr Lr Mr. Clarke now. While he has the ability to run a dozen roads like the Missouri Pacific his health is against him. The system of the road i3 spread out over sa ranch territory that the burden is too much for one man who is not in the most robust condition, physiGally. Many of Mr.Clarke's friends believe he will break down tfhder the load. Will there be many changes in the outfit, did you say Well, if I know the new vice president, I think there will be. It ha already been intimated that T. L. Kimball, the present traffic manager of the Union Pacific, and other officials of the same road, who were with Mr. Clarke in Omaha, will pack their baggage and take up their abode in St. Louis as employes of the Missouri Pacific. Whether W. H. Newman, the Missouri Pacific's traffic manager, will have to give place to Mr. Kimball and be promoted, or whether Mr. Kimball will be given a higher position is, of course, a matter of conjecture."

man, as the conductor again made his ap pearance "look here I'm through. I've had all I can stand. I know when I've had enough. Stop the d—n combination and turn around." "Never mind, old man you have sev-er-1 miles due you on your 25 cents yet. Sit still/' and the conductor walked away.

It is only to be added that Uncle Jumper, who had not been away from home for many years, other than "go to town," had never seen the steam cars and was wholly unsophisticated, was taken to Evansville—all in a joke. He was much worried, but was finally sent back the next day to Terre Haute. His good old patient team of horses, which had been waiting his coming, had amused themselves by eating up about four or five feet of a heavy wooden hitch rail. Uncle Jtiniper "never after, to the day of his death, ventured near a railroad'traim.

SPANISH POLITICS.,

Ail I at cresting Let lor from SaD®r Bxuillo CatteUr. Faom a Special Correspondent.

MADRID, November 15.—In Spain politics are more idealistic and theoretical than many writers imagine who obstinate'y persevere iu judging their only by their external aspects. The -Spanish nation, monarchical and Catholic, had always been in a state of combat with countries resprc-senticg revolutionary and new ideas with Germany that started the reformation, with England that invented the parliamentary system, with France that inaugurated the revolution and thus it was overtaken by the nineteenth century imbued with innovations, and forced to accept the spirit cf modern thought, and to assimilate the indispensable dogmas of the new era. Then it was that two parties naturally sprang into existence, one standing by the old historical institutions and combating all changes, the olher exerting every effort to introduce liberal reforms. The powerful advocates of the old regime found a strong ally in a secular belief, and the friends of the Reformation and liberty had to multiply their activity in this Titanic battle with innumerable obstacles, in this heroic attempt to overthrow a semi-Asiatic monarchy, semiMohammedan intolerance, slavery with all its horrors and priviiegec.of every form.

We took advantage of these internal dissensions. But the odds were against u?, and we were beaten. In this eminently enlightened period, like unto the silk-worm imprisoning itself in ita own cocoon, we men of pro.ress have, in the tame manner, found ourselves fettered in our 0!rn toils. At the prestnt moment, Spain is pas-ing through a period of monarchial restoration, similar to that traversed by England towards the end of the seventeenth century, aad by France dnriDg the first half of the present century. Notwithstanding this state of things, the revolutionary party, which has gone over to the monarchy, governs under the restoration as during the revolution. An Englishman, or an American who understands English politics, if hf. wishes to obtain a correct idea of the ruling party in Spain, must imagine a ministry composed of moderate I'Derab like Goeschen and of Radicals like Chamberlain, for our Saga*ta irf a counterpart of the first as Maitos is of the second the first represents the liberal middle classes, who keep above the ideas of the party of progress, the Progressists and the second represents a Democracy Hint would not accept the republic. Such is the nature of the political parties that now exist in Sp*in. Sigasta offers Msrt«s universal suffrage, which the old Progressists always refused to grant and Martoe offers Sag&sta the submission to the monarchy of a Democracy that has always been its inveterate enemy.

Another fr.ction of the Liberal party, tinder the leadership of General Lopee Dominguez, is attracti considerable attention at the present moment for it is belit-ved that it will soon be reinforced, on the one hand the accession of Sfinor Ronmro Robledo, who hes already separated himself from the Conservative party, and on the other by that of the Marquis de la Vega de Arwijo, who has left the Liberal camp. Both of these men exert great influence in Spanish politics. But I do not .think that such a union is possible, even if agreed upon by its originators. The general public is of the opinion that this more progressive portion of the Liberal party is actuated rather by personal motives than by elevated political principles. Only the other day, one of the best informed Parisian newspapers, the Journal dee Debate, published a curious account of an interview with General Lope* Domingues, which seems to give color to this opinion for this personage developed a party program embracing a series of reforms that would be rather military than civil. With such a platform, it is very easy to imagine that there is to be a momentary suspension of political hostilities, but this is more easily said than ^ne.

General Domiuguez, whether in good taith or not I cannot say, stands forth as the representative of the finrl step in our political progress. If Spain wishes to obtain peace like Italy, Hungary 8nd France, which were once in as disturbed a state as she is to-day, she must seenre what these nations have—the right of sel f-government. The conservative party opposes this solution, on the ground that the country is not yet educated np to the point where it can be emancipated from a sem'-absolute montrchy. The liberal factions, on the other hand, are endeavoring to obtain self-government for the nation, with the exercise and practice of popular sovereignty. Such a reform recognizes the need of at least two things: universal suffrage with all the electoral freedom thst it entails, and the reinsertion in the constitution of those articles that ensured the absolute sovereignty of parliament. Universal suffrage, which is already inserted in Senor Sagasta's platform, represents the most important part of the necessary reforms, while the articles of the Code of 1869, proclaimed by General Lopes Dominguez, would permit the confirmation of the liberties we already possess, or the transition without trouDle or perturbation, from these liberties to other still more piogreasive. Consequently, the party of Qeneral Lopei Domingutc is not an arbitraary entirety created to satisfy personal ambition, but a logical, necessary, and iadfcpensable factor in oar politics. It fills np a void in Sagasta's platform and satisfies a great want, the most important one in onr political condition: the con­

stant and practical exercise of national sovereignity. Hence it is that I have little faith in a durable agreement between politicians such opposite views as Romero, Armijo and Domingnez. Personal resolutions decided npon without that prndenre and circumspection required so eminently of statesmen, often lead astray jnst as the testimony of our senses does, when not controlled and guided by reason. A stick plunged into the water looks as if it were broken, and the illusion produced on the eye by the motion proper to bodies gave birth to the old and false ideas concerning the laws that govern the solar system. In their first impressions upon the retina, objects appear re versed.\ So in a"* familiar conversation between people of the South very talkative and imaginative, they soon rom? to consider, as the most natural thing in the world, a union between parties, and even between a number of leaders separated by such a yawning abyss as divides the Liberals from the Conservatives. But the lessons of experience and the de mands of public opinion regulate all these matters, and men and parties are kept in their true positions. Seoor Romero Robl*do»and Senor Lopez Domia guez cannot manage to agree politically, although tfcey may be the best "of frienas in private life.

I take a similar view of the reported good understanding which so many newspapers tell us exists between the different leaders, of the Republican Coalition. Some of' them entered the Coalition in toe belief that it would prevent a revolution, others that it would precipitate one. Those who consider that the exercise of free speech and tue inculcation of great principles are preferable to revolutionary measnres thought that by uniting with the Republican factions, an explosion could be averted while those, on the contrary, who place violence above persuasion, supposed that by taking this same step they could bring abost an immediate outbreak. This was my reason for not entering the" coalition, which caused me uneasiness and anxiety, devoted as I have been for the last fifteen years, to the propagation of of the principle of a repubitc without a revolution. My fears were well founded. The coalition is responsible, morally at least, for the disastrous event of lost September. Among southern nations ideas quickly become facts, and a warm imagination gives life to wild fancies. The members of the coalition advocated revolution, and it came sooner than'they ex lected or wished. The insurrection of General Villacampa weakened the S'gasta ministry, which felt obliged to retrograde, and even halt, for a time, in its onward march. It also shattered the republican coalition, whose »more inlelligtrt and doctrinary members were surprised and disconcerted by this foolhardy revolt. Those who preferred peaceful to armed measures, came forward, as was to be expected, and implored clemency for the culpable,- faithfully promising for the future to beep within the law and to bring about the republic without having recourse to bloodshed. They obtained what they asked for. and then found themselves bound by their own )romise. Bat they were also others beonging to the Coalition, those who consider arguments useless and bullets necessary, and tbey did not agree to this compromise, and will have the revolution at any price, ard as soon as possible. It is evident that where such a lack of unamity exists, there can be no union. An important fraction of the coalition sees thii contradiction, and is, consequently, determined to adopt our policy, quite convinced that the conservatives owe their present strength to the known determination of Ihe extreme Republicans to rush headlong into a revolution, the only result of which would be to draw down on a series of reactionary measures that would become more and more dangerous to liberty and to the country's welfare. I am firmly convinced thateverybody will be brought over, sooner or later, to advecate universal suffrage and pacific evolution as the best way to secure the government of the nation by the nation.

The key that explains to us contemporaneous events is to be found in the following considerations: Modern Spain is now passing through a period similar to that of the restoration of the Stuarts in England, the restoration of the Bourbons in France, and the restoration of the pope in Rome. These periods of restoration occur every time that revolutions have not succeeded in establishing themselves on a solid baB'ls, or have exceeded the limits assigned by nature itself to social progress. To sum up, our nation will accomplish its aim, just as England and Italy accomplished theirs, and as France is doing at this moment, and secure self-government with liberty and order.

EMILIO CASTELAR.

A Card From Mr. Dickeraoc.

To tho Editor of the Indianapolis Jonrnal. In answer to a communication in yesterday's Journal from "Lex," of Greenfield, I will say that section 106 of the state constitution, Revised Statutes o! 1881, declares that each house, when assembled, shall judge the election?, qualifications and returns cf its own members.

But why all this fuss about Mr. Meagher's inelicibility It was known and declared from the first. The canvass was conducted upon the assumption that Mr. Meagher was not in the race, and my friends acted accordingly. Mr. Kester, the Democratic assoriate on the ticket with Mr. Meagher, was the man I had to beat, which was done by 271 votes. It would be hard to find a Democratic judge brazen enough to declare that Mr. Meagher did not, at the time of his election, and at the present time, possess all the necessary qualifications to do any official act that any justice of the peace might legally do in the state of Indiana. There ia no question about the issue in my case. It is not a party question and I cannot believe that the representatives of the people who are, or ought to be, chosen for their intelligence and patriotism, will be the first to violate the constitution after having taken a solemn oath to defend it.

This harping of the Democrats in regard to the Meagher case is "imply claptrap to disguise some other nefarious act of theirs. The people of Indiana have repudiated the Democratic party and Democratic methods by a large ma jority, and I intend to stand by that majority and assist in giving voice and force to their will.

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

Everythine la a Satisfactory Condition, Except at Points Where Stilkai Pre* nil.

NEW YORK, December 4.—From speoitl information received through their correspondents in all sections of the country the mercantile agency of R. G. Dun & Co. have compiled the following review of trade for the past week: The volume of business continues large throughout the country, but at New England manufacturing towns it is variable, strikes interfering much at the central cities and throughout tbe northwest it is decidedly large. The volume of business, measured by bank exchanges at many points, exceeds that of last year from 30 to 100 per cent, though some depression has resulted from strikes at Chicago and Milwaukee. Recent failures at Detroit and Cincinnati causes no local disturbances of importance. Dullness in the far Sonth contrasts with the great activity and improvement in the new Southern mining and manufacturing regions. The Pacific coast is again disturbed by speculation in mining stocks, with consequent failuree. In leading branches of trade, grain advances in price, with large exports. Cottoa receipts for tbe week were 38 000 bales and exports 14,000 bales greater than last year. The coal trade begins December in better shape and with smaller stocks than for five years past,-with the anthracite output already exceeding last year to d&te by 532 000 tons, whileygrowing demand for bituminous throughout the country betokens great industrial activity. Operators have refused the Mon ongah. la miners' demands, which may lead to an important strike.

Iron is stronger. Southern furnaces now refuse contracts for the year 1887 at current terms. Of steel rails, orders for 45,000 tons were placed last week at $35.

Boot and shoe shipments from Boston have been 2,639,073 cases for tho year, against 2,487,809 last year, though the business is now relatively lighter. Rubber goods have been advanced 15 per cent, by the combination, and dealers have been pushing up the raw material.

Dry goods move with fair hctivity for the season. Ginghams for the spring have el ready been sold to some extent at 9 cents for light fancies end 7J for staples Some makes of woolens have been sold at last season's prices by makers who held wool prior to the advance others urge higher figures. The Lowell company has raised its carpets 2J05 cents, and carpet wool is very strong here and abroad. Boston sales of ail wools are still 11 per cent, in quantity below those of to date.

Collections are genenW^' reported satisfactory, though long striken have embarrassed retail dealers in some localities. At only one or two points is money stringent, but the demand is everywhere active and enlarging.

OTHER PRESIDENTS.

Hotv Their Dlespagoj Were Wiitten— Characteristic Handwriting. Missouri Republican.

In personally writing his messages President Cleveland differs from any of his predecessors. Lincoln wrote comparatively little of his messages, but paid close attention to the phraseology. In those days the "buts" and the "ifs" counted. He wrote a small, even hand, easily read, and his manuscript was not ofteo marred by erasures. Johnson, who followed him, wrote still less. His right arm^as crippled find he could not raise it to his head. lie used pen and ink but rarely, finding a lead pcncil leas tiresome. It is said he did not write a letter iu ink after he became piesident. He signed his name frequently, of sonrse, but an entire letter in his handwriting is now woith almost its weight in geld. He dictated his messages to Colonel William G. Moore, his private secretary. He thought quickly, for the impassibility of writing developed the faculty of dictation to its highest degree.

President Grant sent eight messages to congrees. They were in the main contributions from his cabinet officers, written is the first person and then dovetailed together. They were not finally submitted, however, without careful consideration. Grant was cautious and conservative, and carefully modified and revised the recommendations of his cabinet officers. He loved to write, and all the additions and emendations of the messages were in his own handwriting. He wrote many autograph letters, and vetoes were also in his own hand. He could dictate, but not easily, and whenever he wanted to be particularly forcible he shut himself up in his room and, free from interruption, wrote out in full what he desired to say.

Mr. Hayesi, wrote a sprawling, irregular hand, hard to read by those who were unaccustomed to it. His messages were largely the work of Mr. Rodgeis, his private secretary, a man of considerable scholarship. Whatever polish they contained was due entirely to Mr. Rodgers, and many portion*, indeed, were written by the latter in the first instance. The cabinet officers aided largely in the work, and their contributions were used without revision.

President Arthur's handwriting was bold and large, showing considerable force, and the words and letters were joined in an easy, running style, as if the writer had done considerable clerical dnty. Surrogate Rollins, of New York, it is not generally known, was Mr. Arthur's right-hand man in the preparation of the messages. Together they arranged the topics to be treated upon, and many of the ideas contained in tbe documents emanated directly from Mr. Rollins.

PITTSBURO, December 4.—The action of the frost caused a rupture of. the valve in the main conduit of the Chartiers Natural Gas company building from Murrayville to this city at 7:30 o'clock this morning. The entire supply of gas from three large wells was cut off until 12:30 o'clock this afternoon, during which time tbe company's patrons, on the south side, were seriously and provokingly inconvenienced. A number of mills and glass houses closed for the day.
